crumbs got a reaction from Bayesian in James Horner's THE LADY IN RED (1979) - NEW! 2024 Intrada premiere release
Here's one that pays homage to the theatrical poster.

crumbs got a reaction from Brando in Theoretical tracklists for expansions
Yeah that's the only omission I noticed about @BrotherSound's tracklist. A comprehensive TLC expansion needs at least 3 versions of KUWTJ.
Personally I'd pair the album version and the revised film version (with insert ending) in the film score presentation, because they're so different anyway. Then the revised cue WITHOUT the film insert ending could go in the bonus section.
I don't think the film insert ending has leaked in any of the bootlegs either.

If this takes you hours for free for a score you don't even necessarily care about... then why can the paid professional only throw together something so bland and low effort? Though at least there are no mistakes in it except for the bad font choice, as far as we can tell for now.

Must have been a bridge too far matching the fonts on the top and bottom of the artwork.

It's so heartbreaking that Tintin falls under the new AFM rules, making it effectively inaccessible to the labels. I'd love to hear this score expanded!

crumbs got a reaction from bored in Star Wars Prequel Music Resource (part 2)
Fantastic stuff... ROTS is definitely my most-wanted prequel expansion. It deserves the Matessino treatment!
That alternate Battle of the Heroes opening being recorded was a great discovery last year. Who knows what else was recorded we don't know about!

crumbs reacted to Tom in John Williams on Variety Cover (article & video)
I think he is asked so much that large stretches without anything rarely come up. He talks about the tuba and viola concerto being somewhat spontaneous. Heartwood probably the same. I wonder how much the piano concerto is him and how much Ax asking.
I do think that he loves the popular vein of composing more than he realizes or at least sometimes lets on. Jumping at the ESPN thing the way he did and the comments in this interview point to him wanting more than just concert-hall composing.
50 years from now, musicologists are going to be dumbfounded that he pulled off a lifetime worth of work for the concert hall and a lifetime worth of work for movies (and a hell of a lot of occasion pieces to boot).
He seems so balanced. His comments on Goldsmith and others being unhappy due to their career frustrations is so perceptive. He found the recipe for a lifetime of happiness as a composer--something that very, very few composers (from Mozart to Beethoven to Goldsmith) have pulled off.

I'd say each score has their "hits".
1.
This Is Berk
Forbidden Friendship
See You Tomorrow
Test Drive
Romantic Flight
Where's Hiccup
Coming Back Around
2.
Dragon Racing
Flying With Mother
Battle Of The Bewliderbeasts
Hiccup Confronts Drago
Stoick's Ship
Toothless Found
Two New Alphas
3.
Legend Has It
Exodus!
Third Date
Furies In Love
The Hidden World
Armada Battle
Once There Were Dragons
But honestly. What I feel is so cool and strong about these score is that Powell makes sure that something interesting is happening all the time.
Be it big brass statements, sweeping strings, dancing woodwinds, percussion going nuts, choir singing for if their lives depended on it or even the quieter pizzicato or percussion or the solo harp or pianos.
I could listen to all 3 scores in a row (OST or deluxe) and not be distracted by anything else. Powell grabs your fullest attention and doesn't let you go until he means to.

Just listened to the album. I have to be careful for my co-workers don't notice my tears. This score is wonderful! Loved it in 2019 and loved it again now.
The OST did contain pretty much all the important stuff, but it's nice to have the complete score.
It's so cool that after working on his concert and with John Williams on Solo, Powell's score for this movie is more... classical and less "Hollywood-like". I hope he never loses this on his future scores!

crumbs reacted to Richard Penna in John Powell's HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON: THE HIDDEN WORLD (2019) - 2024 Varese Deluxe Edition
The trilogy is complete and definitive
As mentioned before, the first two say 3000 copies whereas the last says 2000. You'd think they're anticipating all puchasers of the first two to want to complete the set.
I also observe that the printed cover for this one looks fine - no pixellation or major artifacts. It's just the digital version that looks a bit suspect.

Wonder if this release bodes well for a BOT4J 35th anniversary expansion coming this July?
There's been quite a few instances where pairs of Cruise/LLL expansions are released within the span of a few months, likely due to Cruise approving their artwork at the same time (and he's a busy guy, so I imagine that only happens once or twice a year).

So just senior nudity then?

Cool. Kind of weird, but cool. Sounds like some sort of secret society in the vein of Eyes Wide Shut, but without the youthful nudity.
